Chapter 819 [Possessed by the God of Decay, Save Xiao Si]
The Suns players had a breakout the next day and then went on vacation.
The atmosphere at the dinner was not very good, and many veterans were too depressed to talk, especially Eddie Jones and Collis Williams, who were in the last season of their careers and failed to get a championship ring before retiring.
Both of them had a strong sense of fatalism, as if they had been cursed by some kind.
The Suns have won four consecutive championships, the first person in the league to lead the team, and the team will be over as soon as I come, am I the legendary god of decay?
Eddie Jones had enough decay in his previous life, and as soon as he left the Lakers, the Lakers started dynasty mode; As soon as he left the Heat, the Heat won the championship; As soon as he returned to the Heat, the Heat's first round of blood collapsed......
There is still hope for Grant Hill, who has had a good season, playing in 74 games, averaging 26.8 minutes per game, 10.2 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2 assists while shooting 50.5% from the field. He's missed back-to-back games, and while the numbers have dropped, it's been a rare healthy season, and he's willing to continue playing for the Suns next season.
Free agents are also ready to leave, the team has broken the championship, they can't continue the legend if they stay, and the goal is to sign big contracts and make more money. In the summer, Vallejo, Thomas, Bale, Gortat, Shamond Williams are completely free agents, and Anthony Parker has the option to jump out of his contract and is limited to free agents.
With the addition of retired players, the Suns will go halfway, and the management does not plan to renew the contract with a high salary, and is ready to make a major change in the lineup.
It doesn't make much sense to renew a player with a championship ring, and it could be reduced to a garbage contract, as is evident from their performance in the regular season this season, with a sluggish defensive end and only active when shooting shots.
Many people have heard the proverb that an iron nail ruins a war, but sometimes it is much easier to ruin something than that proverb.
For example, Meghan's sentence "Michael Bay is the Hitler on the set" can ruin her acting career. Guo Xu poked a finger and made the Suns fail to defend the title, causing the dynasty team to break up.
President David Stern breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to see the Suns complete five consecutive championships, Guo Xu's injury this time is what officials like to see, both to break the winning streak and not to affect Guo Xu's popularity.
After the series, major websites analyzed the reasons for the Suns' exit, and fans were also discussing the performance of the Suns players.
In the playoffs, Guo Xu's shooting rate dropped to 44%, the three-point shooting rate was 38.6%, and the data was 28.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 9.3 assists.
Guo Xu's poor performance is forgivable, shooting is to use the index finger, middle finger and ring finger three, the middle finger is indispensable, because the longest. And his decline is also compared with himself, compared with other outside stars, the data is still the most beautiful.
The fans didn't blame Roy, after all, he was only a second-year rookie, and injuries were not something he could control.
Roy also wanted to make an early comeback and played with an injury, but was stopped by Suns doctor Thomas Carter.
Carter made it clear to him that as long as he did that, he would probably retire in a few years. The Suns' team doctor is not a veterinarian, and he will not compromise on the consequences, and Roy is not big enough to joke about his career.
And Guo Xu also spoke. "You just honestly stay for me to recuperate, take time to practice three points during the holidays, practice the long throw well, practice the European step well, and if you dare to play a big change of direction in the future, jump up from the crowd and pull the rod, I will propose to trade you out."
Guo Xu is not joking, if he wants to change Roy's life, he must change his style of play, if he still wants to show off his bouncing power, the ending will be to wear out the meniscus and retire. Roy also knew that the boss was for his own good, and he wouldn't be angry, and the series ended up being a bystander.
Someone has to pay for the loss, and the role players are not qualified, so the pot fell to the head of the "little bully" Stadameyer, and he was sprayed miserably. The media and fans sprayed together.
In the playoffs, Xiao Si averaged 40.8 points per game, but his data and offensive efficiency declined, only 23.3 points and 9 rebounds, shooting 48.5%, and the worst thing is that his free throw shooting rate was only 63.3%, which was far inferior to the regular season.
The players in the two rounds are Tyson Chandler and Tim Duncan, both defensive specialists. They guard the rim tightly when they defend Xiao Si, so that he can't rush up, and then interfere with the shot. When Silly Jr. went out to cover and caught the ball and shot, both teams used rotational defense, and the wing players around 205cm tall interfered with the shot.
Wing players of Lewis, Stojakovic, and Granger have a hard time breaking through the guards, but they are good at interfering with shots, even if they don't jump, they can be scary just by their height and reach. As a result, Xiao Si shot only 43.8% from mid-range and 31.3% from long range in the playoffs.
6 billion pot secrets are waiting to see the Sun's five consecutive championships, Guo Xu's number of champions surpasses Jordan, Xiao Si, a healthy person, can't bear it if he fights so badly!
"Xiao Si is seriously overrated, he will only play blocking and dismantling with Jason, and he can't attract the bag with the ball, and he can't defend it."
"In 2006, Xiao Si and Marion were not there, and the Sun easily won the championship, and now Xiao Si is on the field, Vallejo is resting, and the Sun's inside line can't be prevented, isn't it obvious why you lost? Even if Jason's shooting percentage drops, he averages close to 30+10 per game, and Xiaosi scores less than in the regular season. ”
"Xiao Si is a pseudo-superstar who relies on the system to play. It's a pity for the Suns this year, and the Spurs can't win against the Suns if Jason doesn't have a finger injury. ”
"If the Suns want to win a championship next season, they have to re-sign Vallejo, and he deserves to be on the All-Defensive Team. Marion and Ariza are also important, and the outside defense has obviously deteriorated since they left, and the Suns shouldn't have let Ariza go before. ”
Xiao Si was depressed when he saw the news, where is the reason? He fought until he was about to have leg cramps to help the team win, but the result was not as high as the reimbursed "Brazilian actor".
In fact, this is due to the deliberate guidance of the media, and fans now believe that Vallejo is a super defensive player, a seriously underrated interior player. Many team managers also believe this, and they will poach people with high salaries in the summer to further tear down the Suns' roster.
Xiao Si still had to be saved, and agent Harpy Waters called Guo Xu. "Jason, did you watch the news? I suggest you hold a press conference to announce that you are going to join the national team to play in the Olympics, and by the way, help Amare say a few words, otherwise his commercial value will decline. ”
Harpy is also Xiao Si's agent, he has to think about Xiao Si's future, the commercial value of the second star is not as good as the team boss, if the fans spray him for a summer, it is likely to affect the commercial endorsement.
Guo Xu said with a smile: "The day after tomorrow, I will hold a press conference, go to Los Angeles, and notify the entertainment media, I will talk about the new movie by the way, just say that there is nothing to talk about joining the national team, and the press conference can be over in a few words." ”
In Guo Xu's previous life, the elite of the Dream 8 team participating in the Beijing Olympics was exhausted, and almost all the top NBA stars went, even if Guo Xu didn't go to the lineup, he would blow up other teams. He went to this men's basketball game basically to travel at public expense, and there was no suspense about the outcome of the game, but I didn't know whose position he would replace.
Deron Williams is likely to be waived, and Chubby lacks a presence in both the NBA and the national team.
Guo Xu feels that he is more likely to replace Kidd's position, the veteran Kidd is a pseudo-starter in the national team, no data and no contribution, generally play for five minutes, not in the first half, and depending on the situation in the second half.
It is impossible for Guo Xu to play as a substitute......
